Di Di Hangers

03-13-didi.jpg

How many things can you hang? These Di Di Hangers could provide a tremendous amount of hanging storage, and we like them best in a series as shown in the photo above. They're available at Usona Home: we looked at them earlier today (they've got a few irresistable finds!).

 
 

The hangers are available in polished steel or epoxy-painted steel finishes in silver, titanium, black, white, yellow, orange, red, green, blue. Choose from two lengths of either 53" or 33.5".

Like them but why no prices on their website? Kinda annoying.

Julianna, I second that.

Maxwell, maybe you can provide some insight. Why don't some sites provide prices? I can understand if they have rare materials that fluctuate wildly, but what about 'normal' premade products? Are they trying to discourage retail sales?

I like them as well and love the bright colors... but will they be more functional if the hooks were staggered a bit so that the jackets didn't overlap on each other and create a mountain-o-coats?

How do these attach to the wall?

Do they hang from the picture molding?

Also called for info: they come with two screws for hanging and the hooks are 2-3" long.

I'm sorry, but price is outrageous.

So we're looking at $5,000 worth of hooks in the picture above?

They look amazing in that composition. guess I'll wait for Target to do their version for $19...

Maybe if you hung them diagonally, you couldn't get the impossible "Mound of coats."

seems like this might not be so hard for a metalshop to fabricate if you don't want to wait 3 months for a hook.

You wouldn't be able to hang coats diagonally on that rack because of the way the hooks are made. Besides, it would defeat the pupose of those racks if you hung them diagonally...they would be just like an other diagonally hung coat rack.

this is my favorite thread of the day! it put a smile on my face. of course I totally agree with the pricing questions - higher end stores don't list them because it is considered "down market" - and they ARE expensive.

However, every good Modern idea can usually be reproduced much more affordably, so you are absolutely right to wait for the knockoff, or to do it yourself.

I consider all our high end posts either a splurge or food for thought.

I love how they look when empty, which kinda defeats the purpose.

At any price!
